The most exciting thing will be this year. Both guys on value contracts. The entire D are on value contracts. Markstrom, Lindholm, playing beyond their contract. Depending on Lucic/Monahan, Flames could be big contenders and in position to make moves midseason for a second straight year.

Easily a tier or 2 above Hubs? Hubs has outscored and been more consistent than Johnny the last 4 seasons.

He’s also way bigger. If Johnny isn’t scoring points, he’s useless. He stays away from everything physical because he’s too small. Hubs also plays the penalty kill which Johnny could never do. I think Hubs is the better player. Maybe you can argue they’re the same.
